From Me to You: Lazada Philippines Voucher

by — 4 Comments
Filed Under: Around the Web

I think Lazada Philippines has picked up on my frequent purchases from their website in the past couple of months. They might have also seen a couple of posts from here about their shop, which were mostly of good feedback, as opposed to the thousands of bad comments they get every day.

But.. it’s just… at the time, the prices of these were just too irresistible NOT to purchase them. Better now than never? LOLJK

Lazada PH Haul lolLazada haul! (Wow, big word. First time! LOL)

None of my comments were made-up, though. I really have yet to experience a bad transaction with them, and let’s hope that never happens. And I have not had any problems with shipping time. My orders always arrive within the 24hr timeframe.

Anyway, the point of this quick post is to announce that I have another free discounted voucher you’re welcome to use on your Lazada Philippines purchase which you may use starting NOW until TOMORROW (May 31, 2014 – PH time) midnight.

Awesome, right? All the information you need to know is after the cut..

Life has been uninteresting lately. Cooped up here in my room for the entire week. Maybe I’ll start working on my portfolio when I’ve lost my sanity and become THAT bored.. but for now, TV has been very entertaining. Also, there have been plans for out of town trips with different set of friends in the coming months, so that is something I am looking forward to. Keeping myself on house arrest to save up some money, haha. Yup.
Little backstory about the downtime of my portfolio: Back in January there was a series of hacks on my websites and all the websites under my host. The website got too damaged in the process and I felt lazy to put everything up every time it got hacked. Oh well, it was time for a major renovation anyway.

By the way, I covered an event I went to two weeks ago! My write-up is published over at When in Manila! Check it out here: SOL Republic Headphones: Manila’s Key to Hearing the Soundtrack of Life 

Sorry, let me humble brag about this for once. This doesn’t (EVER) happen to me.. so I’d like to share this small accomplishment with you all. ❤ There are probably a few errors, but I tried my best to be informative and keep my personal style in the writing.

That’s all for now. Lemme get back to my backlogs, but wait.. after TV time! 😆

WIM Induction and Blogging 101 Talks

WIM Blogging 101

L-R: 1. Angeline of WIM speaking about how to make writing easier 2. Outside The Mind Museum 3. Jason Cruz on Community Management talk 4. Kyle Imao of Kyle’s Lab (located in 2nd floor of The Mind Museum) explains his Tiramisu Pot to the WIM members, and Vince Golangco of WIM 5. Anton Diaz of OAP on Blogging Secrets talk 6. Snacks c/o Kyle’s Lab! 7. The flashcard I got for the icebreaker game (I had to guess what it is by the way my teammates treated me) 8. Anton Diaz of OAP talks about viral topics that gets our attention online (I cringe at #10) 9. Funny sign I saw outside somewhere in the museum

I’d say that yesterday was a very productive one. After weeks of being stuck at home, cooped up in my room and fixing all sorts of things in my offline life, I went out to meet new people, and went home at the end of the day with newfound knowledge about what I have been doing most of my life. Blogging, what else?! Hahaha.

Happy to be part of the growing community of wheninmanila.com, too! I was a little starstruck seeing most of the known people in there in person but I’m happy to say they’re all approachable and really nice people. That might sound creepy, because.. for a few months I’ve only lurked around, hah. I love how they’re geeky (aren’t we all?!) and funny. I had no expectations but to just learn from the talks but I got more than that from yesterday. I met a couple of new people, and two who are frequent visitors of my blog (hi Jhanz and Martin!).

Oh, the talks! You’ll be glad to know that none of them was a snooze fest. That’s saying a lot because nearly all conferences/seminars I go to, I fall asleep at some point. Perhaps it’s because the topic is something of my interest and that I was eager to learn from them. Or they were really engaging and entertaining speakers? Either way, all of the talks were so informative and helpful I actually took notes. Some of it I already knew, but good to be reminded nonetheless. Also, be mindful of what you post online.

Bits & Pieces: Hong Kong

Bits and Pieces: Hong Kong

So I just found out I have a shitload of photos other than my Instax photos and the ones I had posted on my Instagram during my visit in Hong Kong. I sorted them out last week, and just got to edit them a few days ago.

I like taking photos and I wish I was any better really good in doing that. Hahaha. No they aren’t the best, I know, but for point and shoot and phone camera (not even taken w/ an iPhone), they’re not that bad. I also had fun editing these because I played a bit with typography! Haven’t played with Photoshop (other than quickly postprocessing photos) so I’m a bit rusty when it comes to picking out fonts for typography shiz.

You’re outside your homeland for four days, on your own, and you have all the freedom to go anywhere you want in the new country.. what else do you do other than shop? Take pictures! Of places(!), not myself, like a tourist would.
